TV show description:
A psychological thriller, this TV show is based on the best-selling series of books by Blake Crouch.

Secret Service Agent Ethan Burke (Matt Dillon) drives to the bucolic town of Wayward Pines searching for two missing federal agents. One of the best Secret Service agents in the Seattle office, Burke is the man who knew missing agent Kate Hewson (Carla Gugino) better than anyone. They were more than partners — their relationship nearly destroyed Ethan’s marriage.

Everything changes when a truck slams into his car… and he wakes up in the Wayward Pines Hospital. The intense and unpredictable Nurse Pam (Melissa Leo) is at his bedside. It soon appears that Pam is more interested in harming than healing however. She and Ethan soon grow into deadly rivals, and her role in the town proves much deeper than anyone realizes.

Among the other residents Ethan meets are the mysterious Doctor Jenkins (Toby Jones), the psychiatrist who treats him at Wayward Pines Hospital; toymaker Harold Ballinger (Reed Diamond); Beverly (Juliette Lewis), a bartender who is as wary of Wayward Pines as he is; and Sheriff Arnold Pope (Terrence Howard), who takes offense at a Secret Service agent showing up on his turf.

Watched the first year and saw nothing really changed at the end. That should have ended it, but now they are back. Will we see the same things as in the first year and get the same results? I’ll pass.

As much as I like the show and the books, I don’t think they will renew it. Because in the book the survivors find out that the food stores are running out. And the only way to survive is to go back to sleep in the “canisters” and program to be awakened 70,000,000 in the future. Having a show or two of the process involved doing that would be interesting. Just my piece of my mind.

They ruined the tv show with the way that they ended it. I suggest that you read the trilogy – they are small paperbacks and a very fast read. You will not be disappointed with the story. Just one spoiler – there is no elevator death in the book. I watched the show first and then read the books when I found out that they cancelled it. The last page of the 3rd book was a stunner.
